3. What is the relationship between
adaptation and natural selection?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

hope it helps...

Explanation:

Evolution is not the same as adaptation or natural selection. Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution. Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations.

gene is a segment of DNA on a chromosome. How are genes related to the proteins made by a cell?

Answers

Answer:

The DNA in genes is transcribed into RNA and translated into proteins

Explanation:

The sequence of DNA in a gene is transcribed into a messenger RNA (mRNA). This sequence of this mRNA is translated into a sequence of amino acids that form a protein.

The sequence of DNA in a gene directly affects the amino acids, and therefore the structure and function of, a protein.

Answer:

The structure of the genes in a cell determines the structure of the proteins made by the cell.

Why is energy lost in a food chain? *​

Answers

Answer:

Because as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level

Explanation:

Hope that helps!

not all energy is passed from one level of a food chain to the next. Around 90% of energy is lost from heat during respiration, in materials that the consumer doesn't digest, or through movement. Through the undigested materials where the energy is stored It's transferred to decomposers.

21. Which of the following statements about catabolic pathways is false?
a. Carbohydrates can feed into oxidative phosphorylation.
b. Glycogen can be broken down into glucose and feed into glycolysis.
c. Amino acids can feed into pyruvate oxidation.
d. Fatty acids can feed into the citric acid cycle.

Answers

from my point of view I think the answer should amino acid can fit into pyruvate oxidation

Carbohydrates can not feed into oxidative phosphorylation, firstly carbohydrates catabolize through glycolysis and the citric acid cycle and release electrons which feed into oxidative phosphorylation.

What are catabolic pathways?

Acetyl-CoA, a chemical that "feeds" the citric acid cycle, can be produced from pyruvate (a byproduct of glycolysis), fatty acid -oxidation, ketone bodies, and amino acid metabolism.

The citric acid cycle is "cataplerotic" when molecules from other routes enter it for catabolism. Amino acids catalyze the breakdown of pyruvate.

Alanine, serine, glycine (through serine), and cysteine are among the amino acids with three carbon atoms that are transformed into pyruvate (the entry point for the citric acid cycle or gluconeogenesis)

Therefore, carbohydrates can feed into oxidative phosphorylation is false about the catabolic pathway, hence option A is correct.

A certain chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine in a 1.5 oz. Serving. The king-size version of the chocolate bar is 85 grams. How much caffeine, in mg, would you consume if you eat the entire king-size bar?Fill in the answer in the blank provided. Mg of caffeine

Answers

Answer:

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

Explanation:

This question can be reframed in the manner below for better understanding.

If 1.5 oz or ounce of a chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine, how many milligrams (mg) of caffeine is contained in 85 grams of the same chocolate bar.

Firstly, the ounce should be converted to grams

If 1 ounce = 28.35g

1.5 ounce = ?

= 1.5 × 28.35/1

=42.53g

Hence, 42.53g of the chocolate bar contains 6 mg of caffeine

85g of the chocolate will contain

42.53g = 6mg

85g = X

where X is the amount of caffeine that will be consumed in mg

X = 85 × 6/42.53

X = 11.99 mg

The amount of caffeine that would be consumed if one eats the entire king-size bar will be 11.99 mg

This type of natural selection occurs when there are selective pressures working against two extremes of a trait and therefore the intermediate or “middle” trait is selected for. If we look at a distribution of traits in the population, it is noticeable that a standard distribution is followed: Example:  For a plant, the plants that are very tall are exposed to more wind and are at risk of being blown over. The plants that are very short fail to get enough sunlight to prosper. Therefore, the plants that are a middle height between the two get both enough sunlight and protection from the wind.

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of one extreme of a trait. Therefore when looking at a distribution of traits in a population, a graph tends to lean more to one side: Example: Giraffes with the longest necks are able to reach more leaves to each. Selective pressures will work in the advantage of the longer neck giraffes and therefore the distribution of the trait within the population will shift towards the longer neck trait.

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of the two extremes and against the intermediate trait. This type of selection is not as common. When looking at a trait distribution, there are two higher peaks on both ends with a minimum in the middle as such: Example: An area that has black, white and grey bunnies contains both black and white rocks. Both the traits for white and black will be favored by natural selection since they both prove useful for camouflage. The intermediate trait of grey does not prove as useful and therefore selective pressures act against the trait.

O ATP absorbs energy as it is converted into ADP + Pi.
ADP + P; release energy as they are converted into ATP.
O When ATP is converted into ADP + Pi , energy is released and used by the cell.
O When ADP + Pi are converted into ATP, energy is released and used by the cell.

Answers

Answer:

When ATP is converted into ADP + P energy is released and used by the cell.

Explanation: ATP contains energy, when a certain part breaks off it converts into ADP and releases energy for the cell tp use.

When ATP is converted into ADP + Pi , energy is released and used by the cell is the most accurately describes the role of ATP as a source of energy.

What is ATP?

An organic substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) gives energy to a variety of biological functions in living cells, including muscular contraction, nerve impulse transmission, condensate dissolving, and chemical synthesis.

ATP is frequently referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer and is present in all known forms of life. It either transforms into adenosine monophosphate (AMP) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP) when absorbed in metabolic activities (AMP).

ATP is replenished by other processes. Every day, the human body recycles the equivalent amount of ATP to its own body weight. Additionally, it serves as a coenzyme and a precursor to DNA and RNA.

Therefore, When ATP is converted into ADP + Pi , energy is released and used by the cell is the most accurately describes the role of ATP as a source of energy.

C. On average, about 10 percent of available energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next.

D. Among consumers in an ecosystem, first-level consumers have the most available energy

Explanation:

The number of trophic levels are limited. when one available energy is transferred from one trophic level to another trophic level, about 10 percent of energy is transferred whereas the rest of the energy about 90 percent is released in the form of heat energy. The first-level consumers have the most available energy due to higher biomass.
